Sam, you mean the VTA tower of the Cobra I suppose. They tested the Cobra arm seperately in a German magazine with very good results - but in German magazines you´ll find only positive statements - no balanced comments or suggestions for improveme...

Halcro,yes it is a really time consuming expedition. I know it from Chris (& Steve) in Atlanta, who really knows how to build it up. But in any case I would not do it without the support of Continuum people.It is a bit easier with the Criterio...

Stringreen, this is of course a statement and you maybe be very fast. My vintage Z8 will stay a little behind you...Raul, to be honest: Raven, SME or Monaco do not push my emotions very much. They are good machines but what is so special regarding...
